Doodling

100 Things to Draw with a Circle is a doodling book that loosens the imagination, and inspires creative thought. Circles and other basic geometric shapes are at the core of art, they're the structures where form and drawing begin.

It provides you with circles that appear as prompts on every page: one or many, large and small, colourful or not, peeking from the bottom or tumbling from the top – you fill in the rest. The simplest of shapes brings you back to the basics and lets you create anything you can see in your imagination.

Abstract or realistic, minimal or over-the-top, there are no wrong choices in this book – and you don't have to be a master at drawing. Pick up your pencil; see what the shapes suggest and where your imagination leads you.

100 Ways to Draw a Triangle is a doodling book that loosens the imagination, and inspires creative thought. Triangles and other basic geometric shapes are at the core of art, they're the structures where form and drawing begin.

If one triangle suggests the roof of a house, you might add just the doors and windows, or draw the entire town. If a row of triangles looks like waves, you might draw a fantasy seascape or simply add a lonely seagull or a swimmer in mid-crawl.

Abstract or realistic, minimal or over-the-top, there are no wrong choices in this book – and you don't have to be a master at drawing. Pick up your pencil, see what the shapes suggest and where your imagination leads you.
